Mic 6:7 | MHM | STEP | v. 7 : The people suggest different sacrifices. They ask if God would be pleased with thousands of rams or ten thousand rivers of oil . They even talk about giving their firstborn for their transgression , just as some nations did. They are willing to give up anything, even what is most valuable to them, if it will make up for their sins. But these things—no matter how costly or painful—are not what God really wants. Outward sacrifices alone cannot make up for sin or bring true forgiveness. God wants more than just gifts or rituals.
